Crusaders Youth Hockey (CYH) is a non-profit organization that provides a co-ed ice hockey program to the youths of Pepperell, Ashby, Townsend, Groton, Dunstable, Shirley, Ayer and surrounding towns. CYH focuses its efforts on the recreational benefits of hockey in an effort to instill lifelong qualities of responsibility, sportsmanship, team play, and personal achievement in all of our players. This has been made possible by the tireless efforts of our volunteer Board of Directors, coaches and team parents and by the generous monetary contributions by local businesses and individuals.

We are seeking sponsorship and support from local businesses to help subsidize expensive equipment for families who otherwise may not be able to afford it, reduce the costs of ice rental, provide skills training for players, and defray the costs of hosting league events.

The following events have the greatest needs and benefits for sponsors to support our league:

Team Sponsorship! NEW THIS YEAR! The Crusaders Youth Hockey have a NEW look, logo and uniform for the 2018-19 season! Everyone will notice our bold updated look! And, they will see your business name on each player’s jersey, on the team that you sponsor!

Learn to Skate is a 10 week program at our home rink at the Groton School, where younger kids learn the foundation of skating and hockey skills. CYH has been proud to offer this program for many years to many hockey families! Sponsor the program and your business logo will be on each players jersey as well as on email blasts, the website and on rink signs!

41st Annual Tourney in the Woods is a large scale event hosted by CYH, which draws in over 1000 players (90+ hockey teams) and their families from local areas and 3 other states. It is a 5 day event in 3 rinks at the Groton School/Lawrence Academy—a very well-attended and respected hockey tournament! Be our Title Sponsor! See www.tourneyinthewoods.org for more information.

At each of these events, there is a great opportunity for sponsors to gain public recognition. CYH can offer a range of benefits to sponsors—please refer to the chart regarding the different sponsorship levels. All donations are gratefully accepted. CYH is a non-profit, charitable, co-ed organization and your contribution is tax deductible. For more information or to arrange your donation, please contact one of the following people:
